This is a fantastic opportunity for individuals looking to gain classroom experience, support student learning, and explore a career in education — without the planning and marking responsibilities of a qualified teacher.

  • Strong spoken and written English – essential for clear communication and effective classroom support

  • Good classroom presence with the ability to manage behaviour effectively

  • A proactive, flexible attitude and the confidence to step into different schools and year groups

  • A valid Child Workforce DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)

Key Responsibilities:

  • Supervising a classroom in the absence of the usual teacher

  • Delivering pre-set lesson plans and ensuring pupils remain on task

  • Managing behaviour and promoting a positive learning environment

  • Reporting back to teaching staff on pupil progress and conduct

What We Offer:

  • Daily rates of pay from £100 to £120

  • Opportunities for flexible and consistent work

  • A variety of school environments to gain valuable experience

  • Support and guidance from an experienced consultant at GSL Education

If you’re considering a career in education or want to work in a rewarding school-based role, we’d love to hear from you.
